----------------------------------

    Component: Views
                   (was: Forrestbot)
    Assign To: Thorsten Scherler

>>At the very least I would like to consider the ability for individual 
> >>users to customise their views.
> > 
> > 
> > What do you mean?
> 
> I mean the user eing able to turn on/off contracts in their view. Kind 
> of like a user choosing to view a web page with their own CSS rather 
> than that provided by the webiste designer. Or, to stick with the portal 
> theme, the user being able to turn on/off some of the portlets.
> 
> Clearly this is only approproate in a dynamic envirnment.

> One suggestion (right now more a RT) would be to create a kind of "forrestskinbot" that can help manipulating the appearance of a site. It is just a thought right now.
> Main function would be to create (online - through a web app) a new skin for a site *without* touching *any code*! ...changing colours, placing logos, manipulate menu style, ... by filling out a form or manipulating a SVG.
> The forrestskinbot would then create the skin, package it, uploaded it to the server of the page, [maybe publish it to the forrest-skins.xml (after review by a committer this could be published for everyone)] and finally create the forrest.skins.descriptors entry in the local forrest.properties.
> ...afterwards that site could be even deployed and published on a server through the /normal/ forrestbot.
